    Cool venue for dinner with friends or solo in the heart of Times Square…read more I went alone and sat at the bar upstairs. I caught an NBA playoff game on their huge big screen TVs and enjoyed a meal and a cocktail. The staff was really attentive and engaging. I highly recommend this spot for really delicious and flavorful food (generous portions) as well as amazing drinks! Try the Jollof with your choice of protein (I picked chicken) and the mango margarita!

    This was our last stop when we were hanging out in Times Square on a Friday night…read more The long line, the security at the front door checking ID, I was confused - is this a restaurant or club? Apparently at night it's a combination of both. It was packed and the music was extremely loud. We had to wait for a table and everyone was really dressed up - I guess I didn't get the Memo. The food and drinks were really good and the staff were working hard to keep up with the overwhelming amount of people. I read that Lagos has great food and drinks and they did not disappoint. Lagos decor was exquisite and on point. It was great admiring the display of artifacts on the walls. It was also a great place to people watch. The restaurant was a nice party vibe and everyone was having a great time even the staff. Of course the gratuities were included in your check and I wasn't surprise.

This spot is located inside an African museum. It is a small place when you walk in. The food is all cooked and laid out on trays. I asked the attendant what is the best dish and he asked if I want spicy or not. I said no spicy and he made the chicken bowl recommendation. The bowl was delicious ! Rice was cooked al dente, chicken juicy, beans so tender and topped with plantains! I have not been a fan of plantains but this one was delicious. And flavor profile was strong and hearty. Hubby loved the bowl too. This time we shared one but next time he's getting his own! We will def take a trip up again next time!

    My fiancé and I decided to get some take out on a rainy day and have always wanted to try Teranga…read more They have a very user friendly ordering system in their website which made it easy to place our orders and make them exactly what we wanted. My fiancé ordered a Yassa Yassa Grilled Chicken Bowl and I ordered a custom bowl. The delivery was very quick and it got to where we were faster than I expected which was a plus. Service was very good! I got a call saying one of the sauces I wanted was out unfortunately but they were helpful in providing me with alternatives. The Yassa Yassa bowl was very delicious, full of bold flavors, and a beautiful contrast between the spicy aromatic jollof, the sweet plantains, and the tangy onion sauce. The chicken in this bowl was definitely a little overdone and could have used more flavor. For my custom bowl, I got a chicken suya bowl with jollof as my base, plantains and the kale stew (Efo riro ) as sides and initially wanted the peanut (mafe) sauce which they were out of so I also tried the yassa or onion sauce. My bowl was absolutely delicious! Same bold flavors as the first bowl but the chicken was juicy, tender, and well spiced. Made all the difference! Both came with a nice chimichurri like spicy sauce called rof which I really enjoyed since it added a spicy, herbal, bright kick to the bowl. This place has amazing flavor and is very filling! I love the fast casual nature of it and how nourishing it feels. This is basically a Chipotle but West African inspired. The portion of meat was very generous in each bowl which was nice. The jollof was amazing! Highly recommend trying one of their suya meats since the seasoning is incomparable! Will be going back again for more bowls in the future.

    Excellent service! Good food. Great location. LOVE the educational map of Africa!…read more The only reason for docking a star is the jollof was not the best and the lamb was a bit less juicy than preferred. We were an odd party of 5 and it was packed inside - they played Yahtzee with a couple parties who didn't yet have food and were seated at larger tables for their small party just so we could sit. Then, moments after a table left they moved us and merged tables so we could comfortably dine. This was so intelligent and comforting imo. Most managers/owners would be afraid to do that, but when you're dealing with mom & pop cultured businesses they make you feel a part of the village so make it work for everybody to eat & enjoy. They handled it professionally and with respect to the customer as we listened in to how they managed. They were fast, helpful, on it from entry to exit! I appreciated the cushioned seating. The fresh ginger juice was amazing especially after all the singing we'd done. They were helping us pronounce the dishes and the presentation was nice. The portion was large enough for leftovers. While they were out of most menu items and handling a large catering order, it seems they're popular for a reason and I'm happy they're doing well. Go, enjoy!!

The ambiance was loud and there were also tv playing. Once we sat the waiter came over and gave us menus. everything looked great and prices were awesome. We got their recommendations: the dibi lamb and dibi chicken with our choice of a free side. we got white rice and vermicelli The lamb was cooked good and the hot sauce was fantastic. The Chicken was a bit burnt but very juicy nonetheless. It was my first time trying Senegalese food and i am looking forward to coming back here! Very flavorful and nice staff i really like it!

    I've been trying to snag a reservation at Tatiana for over a year, and I'm here to tell you the…read morehype is not only real, it's somehow an understatement. This place is SPECIAL. Chef Kwame Onwuachi's Afro-Caribbean masterpiece tucked inside Lincoln Center is the kind of meal that makes you go quiet mid-bite. We ordered the Bodega Special, oxtails, Mom Duke's shrimp, the wings, and the collards, and every single dish was a 10 out of 10. No weak links. No "it's fine." Just plate after plate of food that made me want to stand up and applaud. (We're at Lincoln Center, it felt appropriate.) The oxtails were fall-off-the-bone tender with a rich, glossy sauce that had layers I'm still thinking about. Mom Duke's shrimp arrived dramatic and beautiful, whole shrimp in a deeply spiced sauce that felt simultaneously fancy and deeply soulful. The collards were unlike any I've had. Complex broth, perfect greens, gorgeous presentation with edible flowers that somehow made the dish feel even more intentional. How is a bowl of collards this exciting?! And then. THE WINGS. I don't throw around "best wings of my life" lightly. I have eaten a LOT of wings. These wings broke my brain. That glaze, that crunch, those dipping sauces. I genuinely don't know what Chef Kwame did to them but it should be illegal. Life changing. I will be back for the wings alone. The room is stunning, the plating is stunning, the whole vibe is fun and lively and cool without trying too hard. This is the best meal I've had in New York in years, and I live here. Book it the second Resy drops the reservations. Do not sleep on it. Do whatever it takes to get a table. You will not regret it.

    Cuisine: 8 Service: 4…read moreDecor: 6 Value: 4 Overall: 6 Being one of the most recognizable names in the culinary world for the last few years, I knew eventually I had to come check out this restaurant. Did I have my doubts based on the prices on the menu? Yes! Do I expect it to be much better than the Caribbean cuisine I enjoy often throughout the Bronx, Brooklyn, Queens, and islands themselves? No! Maybe different and certainly elevated. So what's the bottom line? Let's start off with the food, course by course. Crispy Okra (7/10) - For $18, it was essentially about $1 per half of an okra. That seems ridiculous tbh. They were crispy, but also slightly chewy. The flavors were a bit too sweet for me, but the dipping sauce does pair well with it. Curried Goat Patties (9.5/10) - These extreme flavor bombs are the best things we had all night. For people who are worried about gaminess, it's not a problem at all. The flaky crust was perfect. This juicy pocket of goodness may be the reason I return. Jerk Chicken Wings (6/10) - One of the specials of the night. They were good wings, moist and tender. However, where is the jerk? No smoke, no spice, nothing that resembles jerk. More BBQ sauce than anything else. As jerk wings, they fail. Cornbread & Cod (7/10) - Purely judging on taste, I enjoyed the dish overall. Fish was tender sauce was yummy, and cornbread was cornbread. Lol. However, $43 for this appetizer? It is tiny and hard to share as they had suggested. One of the most overpriced items of the night imho. Mom Duke's Shrimp (9/10) - My second favorite item of the night. Similar to a New Orleans style BBQ shrimp, that sauce is to die for. More incredibly, it's hard to find a large shrimp cooked so well. They also provide a soft fluffy brioche for diners to mop up all that yummy head butter and sauce. Fried Branzino (3/10) - I love fish. I love them grilled, steamed, broiled, and obviously, fried. So how could it go so wrong? When you add a sweet overpowering onion heavy rich BBQ-like sauce on top that masks all the natural flavors of this delicate fish. Wagyu Short Rib Pastrami Suya (9/10) - Putting the $120 price tag aside, this was absolutely delicious. The server said this was their signature dish, and I can see why. Beautifully cured, each bite was juicy and tender. Would I rather have three Katz's pastrami sandwiches for the same price? That is the better question. For me, definitely yes! Golden Rum Cake (7/10) - Wish there was a hint more of rum, though the cake was quite moist. The gooseberry and whipped cream worked well. Btw, some of the food came out room temperature to warm. Considering the prices we are paying, everything should come out pipping hot. Let's move onto the decor. The modern main dining room with the purple cloud shaped lights doesn't really do it for me. It's also extremely loud with thumping hip hop music blaring. Maybe sitting outside and enjoying the summer weather while people watching might be better. Lastly, though our server was relatively friendly, he made many mistakes that are not indicative of a top notch restaurant in NYC. I am usually pretty easygoing, but I hate it when servers, without asking a single question, take away our plates when it's not 100% empty. At these high prices, I was planning to lick off every last bit of sauce. Instead, we had our plates taken three times with food on it without even considering if we were done. I guess he was trying to rush us through our meal in order to serve the next group. Oh yeah, I became positive of that fact when he put a chair to the side of our booth to setup for the next seating of five ... ... while we were finishing our desserts. Wtf? Inexcusable! Honestly, I really wanted to love this restaurant even knowing how much it was gonna cost. I know of the accolades. I have seen the tv shows. I've heard many rave reviews. Yet, I felt somewhat disappointed. Would I come back? Debatable.

The setup inside this dimly lit restaurant had a bunch of steam tables offering various beef and chicken dishes, a handful of rice options, and a bunch of salads/fruits. Having no idea what we were looking at, we asked the friendly owner for some advice. After some contemplation, two of us made a plate with all beef over some jollof rice, and another with basically all chicken items over a different type of flavorful rice. We knew it was too much, but our goal was to figure out what we would come back for. Honestly, I did not enjoy most of the chicken because it's sitting in steam trays getting overcooked. Not saying they were terrible, but it all fails in comparison to all the great beef offerings. OMG! You really can't go wrong with any of the beef dishes. My cuisine rating is really based on the various beef items, the yummy veggies, and both amazing rice. The current price is $10.99 per pound regardless what you fill your box with, except a couple of items. We filled our two boxes with about 4lbs of food. Obviously too much, but we got to try many things. No doubt I will be back asap for round two.

The fufu is your utensil. You pinch a piece, dip it into a stew, and that's your bite. I didn't get a stew this time so I kind of freestyled it... dipped mine into the jollof rice with that tomato/meat sauce they put on top and grabbed some lamb. Still hit. One thing to know: there's no traditional restroom setup to wash your hands. They'll bring out a bucket of water and liquid soap so you can clean up at the table. It's normal, but if that's not your thing, just bring hand sanitizer and you'll be good.

The jollof rice was a simple rendition of perfectly seasoned, fluffy rice that packed deep West African spice with every bite. The accompanying red chicken stew was addictively tangy and had enough spice to singe the taste buds. So yummy. The spinach had an unctuous vegetative flavor that paired nicely with the dough-y mellow fufu. The only thing I didn't like was the bits of fish cooked in that still contained bones. Felt like I had to be cautious going through the spinach. The big fried fish pieces were simple and tasty but had a similar but lesser problem. A bit of a first world problem, I know, but it makes the experience just slightly less enjoyable. The hibiscus drink was perfumed with floral sweet and sour. Service: Service was immaculate. The wonderful staff behind the counter asked if it was our first time and had us sampling all the different rices and stews/soups to make sure we liked what we ordered. Ambiance: Very much a hole in the wall in East Harlem with very few tables. Simple but effective. The predominant foot traffic was all the food service drivers coming in and out of the establishment (which there was a healthy flow of).
